PC-V720X Midi Tower Case - Black

The screwdriver-friendly PC-V720 from Lian Li is unique in its shape and size among its fellow cases at Lian Li. Unlike most, this simple and elegant case is designed for horizontal use, but it can also be set up to be used vertically. In practice it can also be used vertically however. In basic terms, the Taiwan-based manufacturer generally cleaves to the traditional elements of their aluminium cases. After all, it's not without good reason that Asia is the biggest producer and consumer of aluminium cases in the world.

The PC-V720 is small and compact with a height (vertical) of just 38,5 cm. The case's ventilation is provided courtesy of the large mesh inserts on the front, top and bottom as well as on one side of the cube. When set up horizontally, the surfaces form the front and sides respectively. With its versatile mesh openings, the PC-V720 is designed from the ground up for active ventilation and already comes with two fans pre-installed - a 140 mm fan which takes care of the exhaust in the top (when oriented vertically), and one 120 mm fan which is built into the front. Due to the extensive use of solid panels, the case looks incredibly elegant and attractive in whichever orientation it is used, some even say it looks like a single machined piece of aluminium.

As with all cases from Lian Li, the PC-V720 is made entirely from aluminium. This enables the case to have a low overall weight and yet remain extremely strong and stable at the same time. Moreover, the looks of the case also benefit from the brushed aluminium structure, meaning that the case looks right at home in just about any sophisticated multimedia environment.

The front of the case is reduced to the absolute essentials, accommodating a centrally positioned power button. The I/O panel with its two USB 3.0 Type A- and one USB 3.1 Type C ports as well as two audio jacks, is that are located on the top or right side, depending on how the PC-V720 is positioned. Thus, they do not get in the way of the incredibly clean and tidy appearance of the case while remaining accessible at all times.

The interior of the PC-V720 includes space for two 3,5" drives in the drive cage. Two additional 2,5" drives may be installed. The case is designed for the use of power supplies that are up to 160 mm long and utilise the ATX form factor. The case allows for up to 140 mm of space for the CPU cooler. The graphics card may be up to 400 mm long and have a width of up to 140 mm. The case includes seven expansion slots.
